Someone seen on surveillance video calmly got out of a car, entered Smith's property and stole the arms off of a plastic Frosty the Snowman lawn decoration.

"I was sitting there Saturday morning and I looked and said, 'Hold on. Frosty had some arms. What happened to them?'" Smith said. "We went back on the footage and saw the guy pull up here and watched him walk up into the yard like he owned it and he took Frosty's arms."

A quick survey of the neighborhood showed other Christmas ornaments remained intact. Smith said there are other snowmen decorations in the neighborhood, but only one has arms.

"This is the holidays, you know? You just don't go out stealing people's lawn ornaments. It's just something you don't do," Smith said.

Police have some leads in the case, but Smith said he's not sure if he will file charges. On Tuesday, Smith said all he wants -- and all Frosty wants -- are his arms back.
